"You can be strong if you go to the world tree!? Me, I'm just going!
"Here, this, wait! I'm not done talking yet!!
Mr. Rittera hastily stopped calling.
Apparently, it doesn't mean we should go to the World Tree.
Seeing me sit down, Mr. Rittera sighs like relieved.
"Even for me, I want Ash to go to the World Tree right now. Anyway, this experiment is all Ash can do."
"But in the Golem, you said there was a lack of power."
"That's right. My golem won't break the 10th tier."
Still, I'm missing Mr. Tronko's record, number four in the brave line, and it's amazing.
But if you let Mr. Rittera tell you, it doesn't make sense if you can't reach the world tree no matter how strong you are.
"Kukukukukuku, can't your golem tear through the tenth layer! So my brain is better than yours! Anyway, my golem was powerful enough to defeat the Phillips!
I broke it before I fought Mr. Phillip, and I can't be sure that Mr. Ringrant's golem will surpass the record of a line of brave men.
Knowing it or not, Mr. Rittera laughed at his nose tip like a little fool. Seeing that, Mr. Ringrant frowns uncomfortably.
"What's wrong with you! No way, you think my golem is weak!?
"You didn't say that. It's just a mistake that you're better."
"You say you're better!?
"That's right. 'Cause you're only thinking about improving the performance of the magic circuit anyway, right? If you improve your performance, you will increase your magic, but you will not be able to produce the most powerful wizard in the world."
"Ho, you even say there are other ways to make it stronger!?
There is no need for Mr. Ringrant to be confused. Because Mr. Rittera's mouth is like saying there's a way to be strong without increasing your magic!
"If you have such a way, let me know!
I'm weak as a wizard because I only have a little bit of magic. That's why I'm training to increase my magic.
If there's a way you can be strong without increasing your magic, I want to try it now!
Mr. Rittera just started explaining my enthusiasm.
"Do you know what magic is to spirits, Ash?
It is believed that there are spirits in this world. Humanity is negotiating with the Spirit by drawing runes and activating paranormal phenomena in exchange for magic - magic, he said.
Well, there's not one person who's actually seen the Spirit.
"To the Spirit, magic is like bait, right?
From a spiritual perspective, magic is bait. The more you feed, the more motivated the Spirit is. As a result, the power of magic increases.
Because I have little food, the Spirit doesn't motivate me either.
"Ash is smart. Well, here's another question. Which do you prefer, Ash?" Delicious bread "or" Unpleasant bread "?
"Of course that's good bread."
I don't even have to think about it.
"Right? If anyone eats it, it's better to taste it. And that's something you can say to the Spirit."
I have a problem with that.
"Does that mean... quality over quantity?
Seemed right again. Mr. Rittera grins.
"I made the hypothesis that 'if you do the exact same amount of magic and unleash magic, the quality is more powerful'. So I built two golems with exactly the same amount of magic, and I experimented with them."
"Wait a minute. What about quality? Your mouth sounds like you've succeeded in improving quality.
"That's where you struggled. I made a golem, but I couldn't think of a way to improve the quality of magic at the heart."
"But you came up with it, didn't you?
Mr. Rittera nodded forcefully as he fulfilled his expectations.
"It's been over ten years now. I went on a journey with Golem to find a way to improve the quality of my magic. I don't know if I'm going anywhere I don't normally go, but I'm not sure if I'm going anywhere."
In short, do you feel different?
That sounds like a better idea to come up with than just stuck in the lab.
"One day, I met in the Devil's Forest. Sleep in a deep hole, with a little kid."
... what?
"When I saw the child, I flashed. If you spend time in the dirt, the magic will look like dirt. Soil Spirit (Gnome)."
"Isn't that a unique idea for you? But what the hell is that kid? Speaking of" Demon Forest, "isn't it the world's greatest danger zone"
"You don't know if I ask. But... now that I think about it, maybe he was a dirt spirit."
It's me!
I'm sorry I'm convinced, but that's me, not the dirt spirits!
No, 'cause it's The Devil's Forest, more than ten years ago, right? So, you've been digging deep holes and sleeping in them, haven't you?
I only know one guy who does things that don't make sense like that.
Objectively, of course, it doesn't make sense. But for the party, it was training to be a wizard!
It was a militant training course, but it led to a wizard training tour, and it turned out to be O'Rei!
"Anyway, when I saw the kid, I went right back to the lab. And I buried the golem deep in the ground for a year."
As a result, the experiment was a great success! Compared to the Golem, which hasn't improved the quality of its magic, what a success it has been in unleashing magic that is 1.2 times more powerful!
"I'm just trying to figure out how far the quality of magic will improve."
He's stronger than Mr. Milo, and there's no doubt that the experiment was a success!
If you make it the preferred magic for the Spirit, you can use powerful magic with a little magic!
The problem is that the Golem's magic is earthly.
You can spend the rest of your life as an underground man if you can dive into the earth and be strong, but I'm a wizard of the wind system. The way to improve the quality of magic should be different from the soil system.
"How can I make Wind Spirit (Sylph) 's favorite magic?
Referring to the case of earthly spirits, are flaming spirits (salamanders) among magmas and water spirits (undines) at the bottom of the sea?
Then the Wind Spirit is in the wind - should I have a tornado all over my body?
"You can go to the top of the world tree."
It led to the first story.
But what's the connection between wind spirits and world trees?
The question was on her face, Ms Rittera told me the details.
"Wind spirits like beautiful winds. And the most beautiful place in the world where the wind blows is the top of the tree."
Yeah, if you ask me, you have an image of 'wind spirits prefer clean winds to dirty winds'.
Besides, there is an image of 'more beautiful winds blowing in places rich in nature than in artificial places'.
So, there doesn't seem to be a better place than the World Tree. Anyway, it's an untouched land for mankind. There will be such a beautiful breeze that there is no more.
"Well, this is just my hypothesis."
It proved that improving the quality of magic can make you stronger, but it seems that the only way to improve the quality of the heart is through earthly systems.
They've experimented with some of them, but you think the flame and water and wind systems failed to validate?
When immersed in a magma bath to improve the quality of the flame system, the golem melted. When I let him dive into the deep sea to further improve the quality of the water system, he stopped floating? Golem, you look heavy.
Golems headed to the world tree to improve the quality of the wind system are now diving into the icebergs to improve the magical quality of the ice system.
"The hypothesis is wrong and the quality of magic may not improve. A demon may strike you in a world tree and put you in danger. Still, can you follow my experiment?
"Of course! I'll make sure to follow the world tree! I'll try to climb up to the top!
Mr. Rittera loosened his cheeks as he was relieved.
"Right! I'm glad you said that! I'm sure Ash will follow you!
"Yes! So what do we do after we reach the top of the world tree?
"That's right. In the meantime, will you take a deep breath for about ten days?
"You mean take a beautiful breeze into your body!
It's more likely to improve the quality of magic in your body than it is in your body!
If you can just take a deep breath for ten days and be strong, you're all hail!
The top of the world tree will have thin air, but I'll let you endure it for ten days!
"Well, before you travel, why don't you do your best to use your magic? Otherwise, I can't compare you."
"Okay! Then you use floating magic!
I can float a brick that was just rolling nearby.
"Uh... you're floating about a millimeter"
"Ash, you really don't have magic..."
"Yes. But for me, it's just magical. I'm so happy to die!
I trained crazy in death and got just a little bit of magic.
My current magic might be my limit.
But whether it's really a limit or not, it's something we don't know until the time of death.
I will continue my training no matter what happens next, and I will make sure I become a great wizard!
And use it! Do the flashy magic I've always dreamed of!
"Mr. Noir. I'm going to the World Tree!
Mr. Noir wanted to go to the World Tree, too, but I can't go with him.
Because there are many boundaries in the world tree, and only the one who broke it can move on.
Even if we can go together until we are on the way, we cannot go together to the top.
"One day, will you go with me?
"Of course I do. I promised you on the airship."
Mr. Noir, who seemed lonely, smiles in that word.
"I'm looking forward to that day."
That's how Mr. Noir dropped me off, and I ran to the world tree.
